I had a chance to see this at the Geffen playhouse while she was previewing it there a number of years ago; sadly, I did not go, although at the time God knows if my parents would have approved of the content! I have to say, I think she should have started making fun of her life a lot sooner (as weird as this sounds.) She's a really funny woman and probably could have made a bit more out of this routine. Of course, she's only more recently - say the past 5 or 6 years - been in a good mental state (and thank goodness for that,) so who knows how it could have gone beforehand.

Saw it on HBO, loved it. If this was an "off" performance I'd probably have died of laughter seeing a real one
